SEA COWS BAY, Tortola, VI - Sea Cows Bay resident Naomi J. Springette-Maduro is now the latest recipient to benefit from a Government-sponsored home rebuilding project, following Hurricane destruction of the original home she shared with her husband and family in 2017.

During the handing over ceremony yesterday, December 18, 2022, the key to a new residence was given to Mrs Springette-Maduro and her husband Clifford, in the presence of District Representative, Hon Julian Fraser RA (R3)

“In the 3rd district, it was Wednesday funeral, Thursday funeral. Today Friday thank God for this ceremony, because Saturday it’s funeral again. We thank god for small mercies,” Hon Fraser said in social media video shared during the ceremony.

Project led by Ministry of Health & Social Development 

Hon Fraser added that the housing programme was made possible via the Ministry of Health and Social Development, through subject Minister, Hon Carvin Malone (AL) along with his support staff.

Hon Fraser also thanked Mr Roy A. Garraway of Quality Construction and all others who contributed to the project.

“The house is quite modest, everything is in it… just got the keep up the good works and keep delivering these homes for people,” Hon Fraser added.

Also present for the handing over ceremony was Jr Minister for Tourism and At-Large representative, Hon Sharie B. deCastro (AL).

    VIP ain’t going anywhere!!!! Miss C** D**p and Mr. T**a R**do Break up; Miss C***y said posted vis social media “ T**a Cound never called back her phone. it’s a wrap.

    In return the host of the said Radio said he won’t be taken her into no g**to to get no p**r people to vote for her.

    To be truthful; C***y without H*B and T**a R***o “Miss. C***y dead before arrival; It’s T**a R***o is what’s keeping Miss. C***y known. weak by herself.

      I see VIP winning 6 seat, 7 the most...It's going to be a lot of juggling for positions both ministerial and Premier ship. I can see Myron, Ronnie and Fahie competing and juggling for Premier ship, All 3 of them going to win next election. . This would give us the unity Govt we need.. .

    How this article about someone getting the keys to their new home turned into gossip about C…y having beef with a certain Radio Show Host. As far as VIP ain’t going anywhere, you are very much allowed to dream on.

    While I'm happy to see these homes being built or repaired half a decade later... is anything done to ensure the recipients can afford to maintain their new homes? Is anything in place to prevent resale or rental?

    The government built or repaid homes and must maintain them for people too. I didn't know. Is this an option for all home owners?
